U.S. Senator John Cornyn is one of several candidates President Trump is looking at to succeed James Comey as FBI director. If Cornyn is nominated, Gov. Greg Abbott would appoint a short-term replacement to fill Sen. Cornyn's seat until a special election is held. Whoever wins the special election would finish the term which ends in 2021.

Who do you hope Gov. Abbott selects if this scenario plays out? We'd like to hear from our readers. Share your thoughts below.
